1. Först är nog definitivt det att Marjo var här idag och vi hade en liten blogg-session, vilket betyder att vi sitter tillsammans och skriver respektive blogg eller gör annat bloggrelaterat. Det är varje gång alldeles super och jag känner att jag verkligen får mera gjort. Vi brukar alltid vara hos någondera men nästa gång skall vi ta oss till Flux och sitta där. Jag har varit där ett par gånger, men Marjo har aldrig så jag skall visa henne stället.First has to be the blog session I had with Marjo today, which means that we sit together and write blogposts or other blog related things. It is always so good and I always get something done. We are usually either here or at her place but next time we are gonna go to Flux and sit there. I have been a few times but Marjo has never so I am gonna show her the place.

2.Grace and Frankie som finns på Netflix. Jag fick tyvärr just tittat klart den nya säsongen och det är lite ledsamt. Men det är en helt super serie och jag rekommenderar verkligen varmt att ni tar och kollar in den.Grace& Frankie which you can find on Netflix. I did actually just finish the new season which is a bit sad. But it is just such a good show and I do recommend checking it out if you haven't.

3.Canva. Jag kom på Canva idag igen då jag pratade med Marjo om bloggheaders och nu så gjorde jag den fina bilden till det här inlägget där och jag tror definitivt att jag får användning av Canva även i fortsättningen. Där finns så mycket roligt!Canva. I remembered Canva again today when me and Marjo were talking about blogheaders and now I made the picture above with it and I do think that I will use it a lot in the future. It is so much fun!

It is always so weird and fun to do these posts. You remember so many things that you have forgotten or haven't thought about in years. I do really love the blog for just this reason.

1.Jag stekte plättar åt oss helt out of the blue. 2. Haha, man måste ju kunna skratta åt sig själv ibland. Denna fanns med i ett blogginlägg också. 3. Jag hade lila naglar. Så söta ju! 4. En random kväll då jag hamnade i Borgå.1. I made some pancakes out of the blue. 2. Haha, you need to be able to laugh at yourself sometimes.This one was also in a blogpost. 3. I had purple nails. So cute! 4. A random evening when I ended up in Porvoo.

I am sitting here and trying to get some energy to take on this Monday and it is not going so well. I slept a lot longer then I usually do and I feel a bit bad about that. I wanna get up around 7-7:30 to get a good morning going and have time to do a lot of things. But today I couldn't really and pressed the snooze button way too many times. I am gonna blame Monday.

But let's go back to a better time which in this case is last thursday when I finally got myself to the hairdressers.

Så det blev såhär.This is how my hair looked before I went to my awesome hairdresser which is located on Neljäs Linja and is the one my mom also uses. Salon Robertiina is what it is called and I have been there a few years ago last, but now I went back. I do recommend it if you live in Helsinki and are looking for a good hairdresser. As I have mentioned before I haven't done anything to my hair since I cut it short over a year ago. So this is how much my hair grows in a year. Think about that for a while. The color is also completely my own, which I actually do like. But I did need some change. So this is what happened.

Nu skall jag ta och äta något och se på Jo Frost. Ha en bra måndag allihopa!Here is the end result. I am so happy with it and so in love. Yes, it did get blonder, but not completely since we know that it's not something that suits me. So bayalage/ombre it is with my own color at the roots. Saara also did curl it a bit and it got so pretty. She also did Olaplex which is great since it is a very damaging procedure to bleach hair so that does protect it a bit. I couldn't be happier and it was what I needed. Now I am gonna eat something and watch Jo Frost. Have a great Monday!

A whole bunch of bottles and tubs that I have gotten out. I really have a lot of these and it feels so stupid that I don't have the energy to do these posts more often so that I could get rid of these a bit more often. It would be kinda nice. But here we have a few.

I am not coming over the fact that this is the best conditioner I have ever tried. I got this one from Buzzador a long time ago and I love it. I have a big one in my bathroom right now that I just had to buy when I found on in Tokmanni. I do recommend this if you find it somewhere.

This is crazy! Do you ever finish a lip balm before it somehow disappears?! It seems that it is possible. I managed to finish one that I got a long long time ago in a goodiebag. Carmex was really in all the goodiebags at one point. This is the cherry version with spf15. I did like it a lot but I am also very happy that it is done so that I can use others too.

Yes, I managed to save even the box the toothpaste came in. Crazy! I did like this toothpaste. I can't say if it really did make my teeth any whiter since I don't really look at my teeth so close, but I haven't gotten any cavities so I think my teeth are doing good.

It is probably not hard to see what top coat I really really love...Haha, I don't have one, or two, but THREE empty Seche Vite. A bit crazy. I do recommend trying it even though it is a bit more expensive but it is worth it. In my opinion.

As I already said I do like Dove shampoos. These had a nice scent and I am pretty sure these were the ones I had with me to Cuba. I have really not had to buy any shampoos myself in a long while thanks to Livbox, as you can probably tell by this post.

Time for a new little series here on the blog which I am gonna call Face of the Day and means that I show you what my face looks like and what make up I have on. At the same time I get to practice my make up skills and learn how to take photos of my face, so it is a win-win situation for me.

I have so much make up just laying in the drawers and this gives me a reason to play with them a bit more. I get to try new looks and colors and of course practice. These will not come everyday but I am gonna try to do these a few times a week.

This kind of post does need a before picture so here you go. I am not unfamiliar to putting out a bare face where I have no make up since I do not wear make up that often. So there are a lot of pictures of me where I have no make up at all. This is how I look most days. I should go get my eyebrows fixed because hello bushes! And I really should put on some lip balm on my dry lips.

Yes, there is a bit of a difference. I got the Lumene CC cream in the Bette Box and I have no used it a few times and I think the color looks quite okay actually. Which is a miracle when it comes to things from the box. So that is a plus. It is a while since I have used and eyeshadow so I got inspired to try thanks to this post series. It is not at all as difficult as I have somehow made myself believe that it is. I'm pretty proud of myself for how well I did. Yes, my lips still need some lip balm.

Here's some close up pictures. I can tell you that it is not easy to take close up pictures with a camera that doesn't have a flip screen so this is the best I could do. Omg, look at those bushes though! Help!

While I was writing this post Emmi asked if I wanted to come to the studio to be photographed so it was good that I did put on some make up. It is gonna be fun to practice getting photographed by someone else since me and her are gonna try to take some outfit pictures at some point too. There are a lot of plans! But now I am gonna start getting ready to leave. Have a great Monday!
.

I had a really fun day yesterday. I was at work first for the whole day. I sat with my tablet at the café during the break between the plays since I didn't feel like going anywhere because it was just a few hours. I went to get food but that was it. After that I went to Stella (and Leo) to celebrate Stella's birthday and it was a lot of fun. I really did need to see friends and be reminded that I do have a lot of good people around me that do like me. Yes, when you sit alone at home with your thoughts it can slip your mind sometimes. But I had a blast and I hope that Stella did enjoy the evening aswell. We did sit and talk for ages with a small group and I was home at about 4-5ish.

Today has been a bit of a mess of a day. I mean, I did come home very late and slept like 3 hours since I had booked the laundry room to 10 am. I didn't plan the evening to go on for so long.

But yes, this day has been a mess. Here's a few examples.

Down in the laundryroom I realized that I should have taken my black jeans too to wash with the darks since they are my only black pair.

I forgot to put detergent in one of the machines and had to figure out how to shut it off and put some in.

I completely forgot where I put my glasses and had to search. I found them after I got up from the laundry room. I mean it is good that I am not totally blind without them.

I was lucky that my mom came over and made food. She made the food while I put the clothes to hang. It was really good and mom did stand me even if I was a bit slow. I wasn't hungover, just very tired. When mom left I took a small 2 hour nap. I don't do that very often but it felt crucial for my survival.

I am pretty happy that I don't have work tomorrow and I can take it easy.

Last thursday Zan came over and we celebrated her birthday a bit and at the same time has a great catch up on everything. We do see each other way too rarely and we really need to get better! Especially now that she is getting a little one this summer. I am gonna be an aunt (okay, fake aunt)! I really can't wait and I can tell you that my baby fever is just growing. It is horrible!At the same time I took and tried out one of these new teas from Lipton that I got from Buzzador. I tried out the Ceylon and it was really good. I also really like the packaging and I don't mind at all if these are visable. Which is really nice. While I was taking this picture I was again reminded of how much fun photographing is. I always somehow forget it. I need to start photographing more. At this moment I am at my moms place dogsitting my brothers dogs. Speaking of fever, my dogfever is not handling this. I want my own dog now! It is so nice to have company and a reason to go out on walks and everything. I love it! Right now one of them is laying in my bed and I just wanna join...LOVE, I tell you.

Time to take a look at this months Bette Box and what was in it. I was very excited since this was the blogger box which means that bloggers have chosen the products. Plus the previous boxes have been so good. So I was looking forward to seeing this box.

Sadly I have to say that I got a bit disappointed, but let's go through the products. There were a few that I am looking forward to trying out. If you have tried any of these products do let me know what you thought.

Den här är jag nog helt glad över trots att det är en tester size så jag vet inte hur många gånger den räcker till. Jag har velat prova Mádaras produkter och den här verkar väldigt bra. Min hud behöver verkligen hjälp just nu. Någonstans ifrån har det hoppat x antal finnar igen och jag blir så ledsen.This one I was happy with even if it is a tester size and I don't know if I am gonna get very many uses out of it to see what it really can do. I have wanted to try out Mádaras products and this one seems good. My skin really needs all the help it can get. I have gotten a lot of spots from somewhere and it is making me very sad.

Här har vi missen i den här boxen. Jag är ju inte blond och kommer nog inte bli så blond någonsin att jag skulle ha nån alls användning av den här. Vilket är ju synd. Men det här är alltså ett spray som man kan lägga på sin utväxt för att gömma den lite fören man hinner ta sig till frissan för att färga. Jag tycker om idéen väldigt mycket, så det är synd att jag inte får användning av den, men jag skall se om någon vän skulle vilja ha den här.Here we have the miss in this box. I am not blonde and I am probably never gonna be so blonde that I will get use out of this. Which is very sad. But this is a spray that helps hide the roots a bit before you have the time to go to the hairdresser to get it fixed. I like the idea a lot so it is sad that I am not gonna get use out of it, but I am gonna see if a friend wants it.

Jag skrattade lite när jag såg denna. Om ni inte har hört ännu så har någon kommit på att den här fungerar superbra som primer under smink och nu har det blivit en grej som alla svär för. Jag har inte ännu provat detta så det skall bli roligt eftersom jag har hört av vänner att den verkligen är bra. Så detta är min favorit i den här boxen. Jag lovar att berätta min åsikt efter att jag provat.I laughed a bit when I saw this one. If you don't know someone realised that this works really well as a primer underneath make up and it has become a huge thing that everyone swear by. I haven't tried it yet so it is gonna be fun to get to since I have heard from friends that it is so good. So I do believe that this is my favorite in this box. I promise to tell you what I think once I have tried it.

Här är även unboxing videon jag gjorde till min youtube kanal. Den är på finska men jag skall göra textning till engelska.Here is also the unboxing video I made for my youtube channel. It is in finnish but I am gonna make english subtitles for it soon.
